    I was excited. We booked it on 11/18 for 11/20. Tour guide no-showed and no one responded to message.
    Response from Host, Apr 2022
    I had missed the email and offered to do the tour for free plus reimburse their travel expenses but it was too late when I contacted them. I've very sorry this happened
